A reminder for everyone. China isn’t abstract.

Obama and the Clinton’s had Mao imagery everywhere, even on their Christmas tree. Many people in those administrations quoted Mao.

Social media and tech companies are all in for the Chinese online control agenda including social media scores, blocking individuals, sites, and search results, etc.

So everything they do in China, they intend to accomplish here in America. And that includes government domination of religion.

Isn’t interesting how communism and Islam have this full tyranical control thing going on? One wonders what happens if/when they clash on an equal footing.

China has jailed and sent a million Chinese muslims to re-education camps to change their beliefs from Muslim to Chinese communism. There can be only one as they said in the Highlander shows.

Islam is a religious, political, and military belief system. It should not enjoy religious protections in the USA because it’s in direct contradiction with our Judaeo-Christian belief and constitutional system.

One of communism’s objectives is to replace God with the state. Every “Christian” church that preaches a form of socialism instead (Liberation Theology, as in Obama’s church) is passively advocating for the elimination of God from society.

100% correct.

And someday, they will.

"And the beast was allowed to wage war against God’s holy people and to conquer them. And he was given authority to rule over every tribe and people and language and nation."

Revelation 13:7
